This is a really good zero portals chamber. I could never make anything like this, even if I tired. 8.5/10

Very clever ^_^
I liked it a lot!

Aneonen 2 Apr, 2023 @ 7:09pm

This one was very cute - I laughed when I realized that the funnel button was not permanent

Brilliant puzzles and gun-less too! You're like the Michelangelo of chamber design!

fredericmarile 12 Mar, 2021 @ 1:59pm

This one took me longer than I'm proud of. I kept looking at the Excursion Funnel thinking, "Darnit, if I use the Faith Plate now, I'll just land in the funnel! That's not useful at all!" Not even realizing that was literally the only way forward. Brilliant puzzle setting, you managed to make every square inch of the test chamber important.

SpielSatzFail 27 Sep, 2020 @ 9:06am

Great one! You tricked me with the funnel ^^ I was wondering why I had to turn it on in the first place. I didn't realize it could also be turned off! Haha.
Nice sequences, nice details, e.g. the slowed down funnel. Thumbs up of course.

Just replayed this one. Still a brilliant puzzle. Seems I forgot to comment when I played it the first time, so here's a comment and a favourite :)

mikatastrophe 18 Jul, 2020 @ 1:33pm

Although I expected a masterpiece as usual, I was still quite surprised that despite being a no portal gun map this was quite difficult (and really creative of course). Take my like and fav, you deserve it as always.

metadavid 10 Jun, 2020 @ 12:34am

I am enjoying the feeling I seem to get at the beginning of most of your maps, where I am completely stumped and start to think to myself that this puzzle is obviously completely and utterly impossible. Then after a while and a bolt of inspiration, I see something I can try, and so it goes...

Miami Mike 26 Mar, 2020 @ 11:33am

I actually played this through a couple of times without realizing that I had no portal gun!

wildgoosespeeder 19 Mar, 2020 @ 1:50pm

Definitely growing appreciation for no portal gun puzzles due to playing other games.

Petutski 26 Aug, 2019 @ 5:53am

Fun unique map! i liked the reuse of several elements. Thanks!

BehindPortal 24 Jul, 2019 @ 6:21am

fun play. exit idea was lol

_galaxy 14 Jul, 2019 @ 1:46pm

Very interesting indeed. I shall take a look at your more difficulty puzzles now, I wanna get stomped xD

zeo1337 7 Jun, 2019 @ 1:21pm

That was the most fun I ever had with a faith plate.

t_jacquelin 26 Mar, 2019 @ 12:47pm

As good as ever; I wonder what is your job ????
Clever maps

nock 11 Jan, 2019 @ 1:26am

You had me there for a brief period of time. Seems I had the same realization moment as Anpy. I'm jealous of you're puzzle making skills, regardless of the number of portals you allow the player to use, it's always a good, logical puzzle :)

Very cool map Fumbly, thumbs up and favourited :)

anpy 1 Jan, 2019 @ 7:40am

Nice puzzle! I felt dumb after realising that not only cubes can go into the funnel. Thumbs up and favorite :)

vincaduchess 24 Dec, 2018 @ 9:47pm

very creative and challenging. loved the thinking required without a portal gun. Thanks for your work!!

Old N Bitter 23 Dec, 2018 @ 9:42am

Excellent! One of my favorites for sure.

Jinx136 22 Dec, 2018 @ 8:21am

On top of this puzzle being nice, your level design was nice also. Thanks for the fun!

Wyld Drew 21 Dec, 2018 @ 11:56pm

Very nice and well designed chamber as always.
Thanks for making it!

maggot.macdonald 20 Dec, 2018 @ 10:23pm

That was a lot of fun!

Conundrum 20 Dec, 2018 @ 9:17pm

Great map! All those details you put in throughtout the map really makes this one of the best out there.

Fumbly Bumbly [author] 20 Dec, 2018 @ 6:00pm

Thanks all!
@subpoena colada That's why I added the ledge to the right of the button. That way you can take it out without being in the funnel, with very little chance of respawning the first cube.

racknae 20 Dec, 2018 @ 5:58pm

Pretty easy to accidentally despawn the first cube by pressing the button while in the funnel. Had to redo all of the setup because of that.

henpitts 20 Dec, 2018 @ 6:51am

Very good. Seemed impossible. I'm used to having portals.

Zoraya 19 Dec, 2018 @ 2:06pm

Very creative and clever map, I really appreciate the originality of it. Thanks again for your work, always a pleasure to play.

Robo SK. 19 Dec, 2018 @ 11:29am

Very pretty no portal gun map -

null 19 Dec, 2018 @ 9:33am

Aye, its just like, "WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT" when I solved it...

But... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFr2JPJFaW8&feature=youtu.be

Miami Mike 19 Dec, 2018 @ 8:43am

It's possible that Lehvak meant he still didn't have a portal gun when he played the next test on his list. That didn't happen to me but I have seen cases where special changes to game behavior were unintentionally persistent.

quatrus 19 Dec, 2018 @ 8:17am

nice for a no portal gun map. Thanks for creating.

ZAEROS 19 Dec, 2018 @ 5:30am

Good fun map, Enjoyed, Thank you.

GrottoLova 18 Dec, 2018 @ 5:04pm

Clever. For me when an element has a different reaction than I'm used to its a huge creativity block to. Portal is teaching me to explore and not assume.

Fumbly Bumbly [author] 18 Dec, 2018 @ 4:32pm

Thanks everyone!
@Lehvak This is a zero portals puzzle. You aren't supposed to have the portal gun to solve the puzzle. That's exactly why I removed it.

Lehvak 18 Dec, 2018 @ 8:50am

Very cool level design and interesting puzzle. But I had to use console to get back portal gun.

Miami Mike 17 Dec, 2018 @ 11:27am

Very cool, and unique in several ways including that you have to experiment a bit to understand what everything does. Inadequate labeling is usually regarded as a rookie mistake, but not in this case!

jandlml 16 Dec, 2018 @ 8:27pm

great map!

Malfaction 16 Dec, 2018 @ 5:47pm

Very satisfying to solve; thumbs up!

Jade BGE 16 Dec, 2018 @ 3:56pm

Very good. Thank you

Mikeastro 16 Dec, 2018 @ 9:46am

Fun map! Surprising how much you can do without a portal gun :)

jgaultney 16 Dec, 2018 @ 6:46am

That was fun! Thanks. :)

Leo 16 Dec, 2018 @ 6:24am

Nice one, quite creative. I agree with Nobody-No One that these antlines are a bit confusing at first sight, though I also think antlines look prettier than signage, which may be the reason why you did it like that. Anyway I recorded my blindrun. If you see me wandering around a little, that's because I was admiring the beautiful visuals!

bullfrog 16 Dec, 2018 @ 1:26am

Yep, easy, but fun to solve.

Nobody No-One 15 Dec, 2018 @ 8:24pm

I enjoyed it a lot. The visuals are beautiful as usual, but I'm not sure how I feel about the signage for the exit door and the funnel. If the antline at the button isn't going to be connected to the antline at the target, why not just use signage instead of having two antlines that go nowhere? Thumbs up.

KoastKatz 15 Dec, 2018 @ 8:19pm

Very clever and fun to solve
